    Undergrad Tricky trig integral (calc 1/2 level)

    I am new to that notation. I suppose that would be the same as leaving dsinx as cosx and integrating with u-substitution?

    I finally succeeded in completing registration on this site. I first attempted to do this a week ago using one e-mail address, and a handle with a subscript (_) in it. I didn't have an e-mail 3 days later and thought because I unchecked "receive e-mail from administrators" option that a bug...

    Undergrad Tricky trig integral (calc 1/2 level)

    dexter: I don't know why that didn't come to mind it is much simpler! (of course though you mean the last term to be cosx). thank you and arildno: I had just looked at the table of values instead of the graph, and actually both solutions have a constant difference of 1/48 so it is actually...

    Undergrad Tricky trig integral (calc 1/2 level)

    Hello, I am an incoming EE freshman who completed Calculus BC one year ago and Multivariable Calculus last Fall. Right now I'm doing a self-study going over basic calculus again in one of my review books. Here is my problem: \int sin^3(x)cos^5(x) dx and I solved it, with an answer my...
